Comment

Born in Liege in 1903 and died in Lausanne in 1989, he is one of the most translated and read French-speaking authors in the world (3500 translations in 47 languages, 550 million books sold!)
His work is really very rich in terms of number of books as well as in literary quality. It is to the XXth century what Balzac's Comédie Humaine is to the XIXth century, it is a real and vast study of the human society of the XXth century.
